A concerned tipster notes the following signs at the now-shuttered Cafe Centosette on Second Avenue and 10th Street... the tipster notes, "I was utterly heartbroken to find this sign posted on the corner of my block."

Sure, that Hooters sign was a joke back then, but you won't be laughing when one actually opens here. Be very careful what you (don't) wish for as it may actually come true. No one thought Mr Stay-Puft could ever hurt anyone and look what happened.

When DID the newcomers go from black leather skinny to so overly corn-fed? Saturday nite in the EV went from Desperately Seeking Sid and Nancy to Sex in the City as imagineered by binge drinkers in West Virginia U's 4-H Club. Wish I could just turn the channel!

Ha! Like sausages stuffed into little black dresses with strappy sandals or those shoes with the really high wedge in the back. The wedgies aren't the best idea when you're going for the 5 shots of anything for $10 at the Continental though.
